I had VERY light periods, which was great, but i had severe emotional problems and it caused so many problems in my last relationship. It led to my fiancé breaking up with me because it got that bad. I switched to Mirena, and i feel like myself again

I started taking Gildess after Generess Fe stopped offering the discount card. After 1 month on Gildess I started getting extreme mood swings. I would get emotional and mad for no reason.
